AlphaProof Code writes 3M lines of proofs for Signal

Original title: Introducing AlphaProof Code: a breakthrough in verifying complex software at depth

Plain language

What it is: Google DeepMind introduced AlphaProof Code, which are AI agents for software verification, and CodeMender, an AI agent for code security.
How it works: The agents wrote three million lines of proofs in the Lean programming language to verify that the software works correctly.
Where it is available: This was applied to Signal's core encryption. Other availability details are not stated in the source.
Example: Verifying the core encryption of the Signal messaging application.

What it is: Google DeepMind announced AlphaProof Code agents for deep software verification, alongside CodeMender, an AI agent for code security.
